"Free Speech"
The author here makes a few good points, most notably what would have happened had "white" been interchanged with another race, and restrictions on student free speech at Drexel.

Embarrassing for Drexel, but they're hardly alone in this twisted logic.

I have to imagine he keeps it up Drexel will stop being so nice and rid themselves of such nonsense.

They need to. The problem is I'm quite positive he would sue based on freedom of speech.

That is one thing I love about the military. Our rights greatly vary from the norm so any action we commit in our professional OR private lives that is deemed to bring discredit to the service (literally so vague it could cover anything) is all the justification they need to give you the boot.
That's also the great thing about private entities. They should have that leeway as well. You act a fool, and it makes us look foolish... you go bye bye.
